PREDICT Breast and Prostate, powerful online risk communication tools developed by ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ researchers, have helped thousands of patients across the world reach better clinical outcomes, avoid unnecessary treatments and suffer less distress.
A new tool to predict an individual’s prognosis following a prostate cancer diagnosis could help prevent unnecessary treatment and related side effects, say researchers at the ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ.
A genetic trawl through the DNA of almost 100,000 people, including 17,000 patients with the most common type of ovarian cancer, has identified 12 new genetic variants that increase risk of developing the disease and confirmed the association of 18 of the previously published variants.
Scientists at Strangeways Research Laboratory are leading the search for the ‘genetic cards’ that determine an individual’s risk of cancer.
Scientists have located a region of DNA which – when altered – can increase the risk of ovarian cancer, according to research published in Nature Genetics over the weekend.
